KID INSIGHT - Generation Interrupted: Everything we thought we knew about Alpha has changed
Hyperconnected. Independent. Self-directed. Continuous learners. Global thinkers. Pragmatic. Stability-seekers. Circa 2019, these were universally accepted as some of the defining characteristics of Gen Alpha (born 2010 onwards). But the experience of living through the pandemic has had a profound impact on these future consumers, and as a result, their trajectory has deviated from its path in some very significant ways. Nobody is tracking these changes more closely than the team at McCrindle, which identified Gen Alpha in the first place. And we’ve invited Advisory Director Ashley Fell back to the Summit to share some of the research firm’s latest insights about this generation in flux.
